2018/19 Marco Silva - New Poll Added

[Buckers]

Geez these forums are getting very depressing. I'm throwing my full support behind Marco. There's no other option. Everyone just needs to can it until Christmas.

There is no other option????

But you still have Brighton, Palace and Burnley 6 points below us..
And we have a much better goal difference. Don't see relegation as an issue at all

Indeed.

And in all probability we won’t get dragged into the dogfight.

But right now we cannot buy a draw, never mind a win....I cannot see us winning another home game.

And we have to play several of those teams below us away.

There is no room for complacency I am afraid.

Sack his useless ass.

Whilst I do not think we have a chance of being relegated and neither do the bookies, they have dropped our odds markedly since before the city game. We were 750/1 but are now 200/1 with Leicester (750), Bournemouth (500) and West ham (500) more likely to stay up than us.

Those odds mean nothing really, if we should win at Cardiff our odds would shoot back up to probably 500/1 again.

I've no issue giving them even a week off.

But they need to be ran into the ground next week and worked harder than they have worked all season. They need drilled an hour a day on set piece defending. The only way they improve is by repaying the boss for their week off by coming back ready to work their arses off.

Agree. And I genuinely do think they'll be worked hard. But they may need a few days first. Heck, even if it's just today, tomorrow and Wednesday, with most of yesterday (guessing they'll have been in for recovery either Sunday morning or perhaps even Saturday night by the time they'd flown back).

That's more than enough time for a multi-millionaire to jet off somewhere for a few days as well, like.

Anyone care to give their assessment of the current state of the Sack-O-meter? For me it's giving a reading of 67%, a poo emoji and 7 kopite tweets

Great but it really didn't matter what you thought (or anyone else)! I am just stating the reasons as to why it was "dragged out".

We had more chance to win it if we sacked him before the semi.

We had more chance to win it if we sacked him before the semi.

Based off what exactly?

For us to sack Silva now would reflect very badly on Moshiri, his record of hiring/firing managers is pretty embarrassing as it is. He sacked Koeman and Allardyce in the same season, costing us an absolute fortune. Then for some reason he was obsessed with Silva (and we'll probably end up paying a sizeable settlement to Watford because of how we approached him). If he were to turn around this season and fire Silva, we'd still have to pay that settlement to Watford and pay off Silva. It's almost comical.

I hope to god Moshiri has absolutely no say in who replaces Silva when he eventually moves on. The man clearly doesn't have a bloody clue. Leave it to Brands.

That's the reason I can't see him being sacked. I think Moshiri would be so desperate for Silva to come good he is willing to flush this season down the toilet and pray to God he can do better next season. it's Moshiris ego that got Silva in (willing to overlook his bad spell at Watford and chalking it up to being so desperate to join Moshiris everton he downed tools) and it will his ego that might ruin next season sticking with Silva.

If you dont have the players for a system you dont play it until you have them. In the meantime you play to your current squads strengths.

Please send your cv to Moshiri immediately

Why people pontificate on whether the players should have a holiday or not is completely irrelevant to anything. We have surely had the easiest season in the prem fixtures wise.

The simple facts are we have a dreadfully inept manager who excels in zero departments.

Couple that with plenty of Championship class players in the team on a regular basis. A bunch of kids way out of there depth and a bizarre spanish fella (I would pick him in an indoor 5 a side comp) who is not an athlete who everyone thinks is good in midfield and a weak heart/assholle in every single player in the squad bar Jags/Coleman/Gueye.

 

[hktoffee]

Why would people enjoy that?

Because there’s always happy clappers and believing style is more important than results. When the team wins possession and has 2 more shots on target per match than BFS in average, against the top 6, some supporters might be pleased, and think the team is going in the right direction.

sticking 20 pound on that would before city would be a an ok consolation to relegation. and before you guys release the hounds I'm in debt up to my eyeballs.
